Barbarism. That's the best word to describe the events depicted in iAnimal, a 360-degree video that takes you inside a pig farm. Shot by animal welfare charity Animal Equality, the experience lasts seven minutes and may cause you to rethink the food...
Japan isn’t the only place where the populace is fascinated with Pokémon and weird food. Sure, some of the strangest of edibles hail from the land of the rising sun, but South Korea is no stranger to odd foods. Take this fried Pikachu. Really. Take it.
Obviously since Pikachu is not a real creature, it’s not actual the flesh of a Pokémon you can gnash on. It’s a pork cutlet cut in a Pikachu shape, breaded, and fried up. It looks pretty tasty.
I bet the breaded Pikachu goes over very well with kids. I like how many meats South Korea has on a stick. Except that roasted penis on a stick. I’ll pass on that one.

Who doesn’t love bacon and cheese together? Yeah, it’s not exactly the healthiest of food combinations, but it sure is tasty. So if you’re interested in cutting right to the chase, and don’t want to be bothered with that pesky bread, lettuce or tomato, then here’s an idea for you…
What you’re looking at is the epic Bacon Weave grilled cheese sandwich. The guys over at DudeFoods created this low-carb, but artery-clogging wonder by carefully weaving a grid of crispy bacon together in place of toast. In the middle – a layer of melty american cheese. Et voilà! Perfection. The trick to the sandwich is pre-cooking the bacon and getting it crispy before nuking the layer of cheese in the middle.
Sure, holding bacon in your hands like this will probably leave your fingers pretty greasy, but that’s more for you (or more likely your dog) to lick off later.

Bacon, our old friend. We've missed you. Japan's Nantsune must have missed it too, as its new Libra 165C meat slicer is using some mighty advanced technology to cut pork quickly. Beating a Nikko creation to the punch by about a year, it uses a displacement sensor to scan the shape of a slab of meat and make cuts that are the exact same weight, regardless of their shape or thickness. By knowing as much as it does in advance, the Libra can cut as many as 6,000 slices every hour; they're not ready-made bacon slices, but they'll certainly get to those cuts much faster than earlier methods that only weighed in mid-chop. You might not want to get visions of setting up Nantsune's meat machine in the kitchen: it'll be ready by the end of June, but the $160,000 price could mean sacrificing a whole lot of other food to avoid breaking out the cleaver.
